Title: Hormone levels?
Post by headhunter on Sep 1^st, 2003, 2:19pm

I am new to system and curious to find out if any one has experienced low levels of testosterone with their CH's. I have been experiencing ch's for 1 1/2 years and I have tried several series of meds and oxygen and I have found no relief. Just two months ago, my Dr. discovered that my testosterone levels were in normal range, but extremely low for a male my age (38). We have tried injections as well as gels to increase level. I have had some temporary relief with CH's, but have come back stronger and more intense than ever. Does anyone out there have any answers or experiences with low testosterone levels and possible relationship with CH's?

Tom, thanks for the link. I will do some further research and continue the testosterone therapy. It seems to be helping. Thanks again.
